Clementine Vulgate (Psalm 137)

Latin.png Latin text

1  Ipsi David. Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi ;

2  adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitebor nomini tuo : super misericordia tua et veritate tua ; quoniam magnificasti super omne, nomen sanctum tuum.

3  In quacumque die invocavero te, exaudi me ; multiplicabis in anima mea virtutem.

4  Confiteantur tibi, Domine, omnes reges terræ, quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui.

5  Et cantent in viis Domini, quoniam magna est gloria Domini ;

6  quoniam excelsus Dominus, et humilia respicit, et alta a longe cognoscit.

7  Si ambulavero in medio tribulationis, vivificabis me ; et super iram inimicorum meorum extendisti manum tuam, et salvum me fecit dextera tua.

8  Dominus retribuet pro me. Domine, misericordia tua in sæculum ; opera manuum tuarum ne despicias.

Church of England 1662 Book of Common Prayer

English.png English text

1  I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, with my whole heart : even before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

2  I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy Name, because of thy loving-kindness and truth : for thou hast magnified thy Name and thy word above all things.

3  When I called upon thee, thou heardest me : and enduedst my soul with much strength.

4  All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord : for they have heard the words of thy mouth.

5  Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the Lord : that great is the glory of the Lord.

6  For though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly : as for the proud, he beholdeth them afar off.

7  Though I walk in the midst of trouble, yet shalt thou refresh me : thou shalt stretch forth thy hand upon the furiousness of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

8  The lord shall make good his loving-kindness toward me : yea, thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever; despise not then the works of thine own hands.
